    Subject: Re: upgrade question
    Good question. I've heard of several people who have done that, and apparently, nobody has complained about the result. While we're at it, do any of the guys with real-world structural backgrounds have any strong objections to using AN-3 bolts instead of rivets? Zenith said they don't mind, and several A&Ps have said it's okay. With the proposed number of bolts in the spar, the .008 (average) difference isn't going to matter. I guess this goes back to Chris' comment one time, "You're building a tractor, not a space shuttle".

    I asked the same question after discovering that a couple of my spar bolt h oles were out of tolerance (It is a quickbuild and came that way but thats another gripe).- ZAC (Caleb) told me that 3/8 was the maximum you could g o to due to edge distances but cautioned that the tolerance was only .004. - If you should go over that, which is easy to do,-you would need to re place the-spar etc. which would be in excess of $2K.- =0A-Bill Pagan =0A=0A=0A=0A=0A=0A=0A________________________________=0AFrom: chuck960 <chu ckde@roadrunner.com>=0ATo: zenith601-list@matronics.com=0ASent: Thu, May 20 , 2010 11:56:11 PM=0ASubject: Zenith601-List: Re: upgrade question=0A=0A--> Zenith601-List message posted by: "chuck960" <chuckde@roadrunner.com>=0A =0AWhy do the bolts have to be smaller than 3/8"?- Is it edge distance th at is the problem?

    Bill, Has anyone thought of using metric bolts. I expect there are the same grade bolts available (perhaps even better) in 8 mm (about 0.0024 over and a standard metric size) and 9 mm (0.0418 over or 0.021 under 3/8, but a hard to get size). -- Mark Hubelbank NorthEast Monitoring 2 Clock Tower Place Suite 555 Maynard, MA, 01754 - USA mhubel@nemon.com 978-443-3955

    All of this reamer talk got me thinking (Scary Huh) and I went to Lowes and bought a 5/16 drill bit and just for shits and grins then drilled about 20 holes in a test piece of spar caps that came from the wing jigs and lo and behold all of my holes done by hand with a drill came out to .312 to .314 and the bolts were snug so if you are half way careful you should be able to just drill the holes.

    Subject: Re: upgrade question
    I discussed this option with a friend of mine a retired tool maker who is making the upgrade to his 601. I am a retired mechanical engineer. If you can ream the holes for a snug slide fit of A3 bolts into the holes then bolts should be OK if the holes are over sized then rivets are the safe way to go as they expand during setting the fill the holes.

    Subject: Landing gear orientation
    From: "Tim Juhl" <juhl@avci.net>
    OK - I know this subject has been discussed before but I thought it would be interesting to hear what people have to say after some time has passed. I'm busy installing the mods in my wings at the moment but in the future I will be back to building my fuselage. I have a Jabiru 3300 going up front and my original intention was to install the gear flat side back. More recent plans call for turning the gear around to avoid nose heaviness which results in the nose plopping down on landing. On the other hand, I have heard that with the gear turned around it is easier to ground the tail when boarding, especially when it's a big guy (like me). That would be a little embarrassing at the least :-) I'd like to hear from guys who have done it both ways (with a similar weight engine) to help me make a final decision as to which way to go.

    Subject: Re: Landing gear orientation
    Hi, Tim! I'm also a "big guy", and I'm in the process of turning my gear around so the flat side faces forward. I'd much rather shift my weight forward when boarding, then put up any longer with the inability to hold the nose off after the mains touch in a full stall landing. Given the low rotation speed of the 601, and the "nose heaviness" with a Corvair, I think it makes sense to move the pivot point forward (assuming tricycle gear). But I'm used to thinking about the tail going down while boarding - this happens withh Grumman Tigers all the time when two big people get on the boarding steps at the same time. The solution is to install a skid at the rear tie-down eye, which will protect the tail and the ring.

    Tim, I am also a big guy. Only once when two of us were boarding the wing at the same time did we even start to tip the airplane. My current practice, anyway now, is to board and strap in my passenger first and then I board. No problems what so ever. I am to the point where I can hold the nose off for a good 5-9 seconds after landing on the mains. Go flat forward with your Jabiru and you will not look back.

    So you are telling me that the holes I drilled in my test piece were someh ow wrong because of some other test that was done? I never said do it I said I was testing it for SHITS AND GRINS and found the holes would be within tolerance.

    O and BTW aluminum is much softer than steel and cast iron now isn't it. And was the hole already there or where these new holes? Did they use hig h speed bits or low speed, oil or no oil? was the test done by hand or usi ng a drill press? New drill bits or old? was the test done by average peop le or machinists? What was the thickness? I drilled the freaking holes and they were within tolerance .002 under so they would be acceptable if I were to use them. If you are going to correct me at least compare apples to apples.

    I thought we were talking about reaming holes not each other. I will drill some test pieces as well before I do the Spar. If someone could point me to the oversize NAS bolt store. Maybe I'll try that instead of reaming to .375. Chuck Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=298490#298490

    Chuck, Shirley at Zenith can give you the source for the oversized bolts. If you decide to switch to 3/8 you still need to use NAS bolts even though the diameter of the 3/8 bolt is larger.
